Carbon: Slow Track Carbon Recycling

Carbon: Slow Track Carbon Recycling (1:17)

Slow-track carbon recycling is the recycling of carbon over geologic time. Plants become fossil fuels that stay in the ground until man brings them to the surface and burns them.

Carbon: Fast Track Carbon Recycling

Carbon: Fast Track Carbon Recycling (1:11)

Fast-track carbon recycling is the process of photosynthesis: animals eating plants, animals eating other animals and animals dying and decomposing to release carbon that begins the process again.
